    I think it is C and D.

    One other benefit of PortFast is that
    Topology Change Notification (TCN) BPDUs are not sent when a switch port in PortFast
    mode goes up or down. This simplifies the TCN transmission on a large network when
    end-user workstations are coming up or shutting down.

This is the case when you port which previously was an edge port, receive a bpdu. the port becomes a non-edge port and remains and goes through the phases learning / forwarding. This triggers the TCN
